Sump Pump Battery Backup Systems in Atlanta
A flooded basement is every homeowner’s worst nightmare. Not only do you have to deal with all of the damage to your belongings and all of the appliances and electrical components in your basement, but you also have to deal with water damage and the mold risk that it brings. To help prevent this from happening, most Atlanta home owners with a basement or crawlspace will have sump pump services. Yet, a sump pump may not be enough. At R.S. Andrews, we highly recommend having a battery backup pump to ensure you are protected no matter what.

Why Do You Need a Battery Backup for Your Sump Pump?
Why is your sump pump insufficient as a way to protect your home from damage during a rain or water event? Often, Atlanta area homeowners will get water in their basements during a serious storm. Yet storms are also a time when the power is probably going to go out.
Sump pumps require an electrical source to run, so if the power goes out during a storm, when you are at the highest risk of a water problem in the basement, your sump pump is not going to function. Even if you have a generator, you have no guarantee that the generator will outlast the power outage, so your basement is at risk. Generators can also only power a few items in your home, so if you are using much of the energy to power your sump pump, you may not be able to utilize other important features of your home. That’s why we recommend a sump pump battery backup.
What Is a Sump Pump Backup System?
A sump pump backup system is a separate pump that is linked to your discharge pipe. When the power goes out and your main sump pump stops functioning, the battery backup for sump pump failure will kick in, taking over the pumping operation until power is restored. This means that your home continues to be protected from the tragedy of a flooded basement, even if the storm knocks out power for hours.
In addition to battery backups, sump pump alarm systems are also highly recommended to provide early alerts in case of sump pump issues, ensuring continuous protection for your basement.
